"Remorse." Pike commented lightly, "The only remorse I have for what happened with the younger Spock is that it had to happen under such circumstances. I have little doubt that if spoken to and he spoke honestly, he wouldn't be able to deny that he enjoyed it, and would want it again. Vulcans are excellent liars, though."
"Tell me this. If I didn't understand your universe, at least in some sense, why would I've told my own Spock, commanded him, to come without harming any? If I hadn't told him, in his anger and pain, he would have had little issue in killing members of this crew, entering their minds, to get information where I am, about this ship, anything."
"Despite having my gloves, which is obviously something that all of you intelligently fear, every time that I've been asked, I've removed them. They are dangerous to others, and as you have shown no trust to me, I can't trust you to not destroy them or tear them apart to learn years of research. Spock has not only entered my mind, but allowed me to do the same in return. He trusts me in some small sense, at least."
He gave a long look to Jim before nodding slightly, "I would rather be in my universe, with my Spock, instead of here. I am willing to do what is necessary to be able to exist here, to learn, until he comes for me. Of that, I have no doubt. If it takes him the rest of my life, he will not stop searching."
